The city of Santander, Spain, will host a 3 day event from October 16th to 18th that will present FI-WARE and FI-Lab to small and medium enterprises (SMEs) as the ideal platform to start working on Smart City projects. There will be information sessions, conferences and a new Hackathon dedicated to Smart City applications!

Information sessions will provide orientation for SMEs, entrepreneurs and R&D Centres about Smart City projects and how private and public entities can prepare for the forthcoming call of the Future Internet Public Private Partnership and Horizon 2020.

Workshops will teach developers how to create functional software that makes use of the tools provided by FI-Lab in order to create Smart City applications. These workshops will end in a tutored Hackathon that will reward the best applications developed.

Visitors will be able to watch demonstrations of the first applications that have been integrated with FI-Lab. Those demonstrations will highlight the potential of the platform and the impact it will have in Smart Cities.
